Why are we doing this?

We'll be using this tool in next weeks class so it's very important that you set it up before class. You must come to class prepared.

Mac

To install, go to the website and click Download for Mac

https://desktop.github.com/

Linux

Installing on Linux is a little more tricky.

Follow the instructions here to install Github Desktop

https://github.com/shiftkey/desktop#debianubuntu-distributions

If you do not understand the instructions written then please ask on Slack for help. We haven't covered how to install software like this yet and you are not expected to understand how to do it.

Install Instructions

  • Find and Open Terminal on your Laptop

  • Copy and paste this line into the terminal then press enter

wget -qO - https://packagecloud.io/shiftkey/desktop/gpgkey | sudo apt-key add -

  • Copy and paste this line into the terminal then press enter

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://packagecloud.io/shiftkey/desktop/any/ any main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/packagecloud-shiftky-desktop.list'

  • Copy and paste this line into the terminal then press enter

sudo apt-get update

  • Copy and paste this line into the terminal then press enter

sudo apt install github-desktop

Github Desktop should now be installed. If any step of this didn't work, please ask for help on Slack.
